"Even though Star Trek: The Next Generation only originally aired for seven seasons, fans have come to have deep attachments to these characters," said convention director Dr. Christina Angel. "We're thrilled to be able to provide a forum where fans and cast members can interact-including, of course, the captain of the reunion panel: William Shatner."

The Saturday, June 14 evening event will be held in the Bellco Theatre. The tickets range from $50-$150 and can be purchased at http://www.denvercomiccon.com; a paid admission into the con is required, and tickets are still available for Denver Comic Con. Fans unable to purchase tickets to the reunion panel can meet many of the cast members for individual autograph sessions and photo opportunities at Celebrity Summit on the convention floor (times TBA). Many of the guests will also participate in additional panels based on other work.
